There is sufficient evidence to justify be-
lief that the deficit of S11, 1886 in the accounts
of Levi Bacon, financial clerk of the Patent
Office, represents the advance made to the
Republican national committee or its agents
during the contest of Hayes against Tilden.
1t is not to be presumed that responsible
members of the committee took the money,
with the knowledge that IL was the result OF a
defalcation. At the same time the dates and
other circumstances connected with the trans
action are sufficiently suspicious to call for an
explanation. Y Star.

Day Itema.

At the Sunday school picnic at this place,
at o'clock to-d day, Saturday, July l6, large
attendance and an enjoyable time generally is
expected. as such turnouts always have at
Morgan Chapel. which has one of the largest
Sunday schools in the county.
We have not been around much for quite
time, and have items only as casually picked
up, and as a waif item the bit of news has
awakened some surprise that the trustees of a
public school mot in Freedom district, but
uncomfortably near,) put a carriage maker
into the school room, thus unoficially exclud-
ing the teacher before the end of the term, all
without notice; and on the next morning the
said teacher, who was acceptable as such to
trustees and patrons, was confronted with
horse passenger locomotive manufacturing
company of one or more, turning the school
room inside out, and the said teacher had to
retreat notens Uolens, and went homeward
cogtating the imposed necessity, of reporting
to fairer thinking school board, who would
certainly redress the wrong of being impera-
lively summoned to adjourn further sessions
of the unfinished term sine die. The COM
pletion of new brick schoolhouse at that
place will obviate q recurrence. And we
about Day would most respectfully suggest
that Just as soon as the fund will make it
available that the pent pine box here used as
a primary schoolhouse, where the attendance
has numbered largely ABOVE MY pupisf
should be substituted by safe brick building,
which could be done at moderate cost, being
SO near C. c. Newport's lumber yard, and
only few hundred yards from Samuel Hess
brick mandatory, from which brick can be
supplied cheaper than from any other point.
In view of the size of our school last winter,
which will no doubt be larger the coming
winter, it is believed that the patrons desire
and that the trustees will ask an assistant
teacher.
Finding relaxation conducive to our i'm
provement in health, we were led on the End
inst to write, and have forwarded to the
Governor of Maryland, the subjoined letter,
which, to impart information to all whom it
may concern, we offer as an item for the AD-
voCATE:
